Just for the record, THIS interoperabilty test was performed without any vendor participation, thus it is real hard for the report to talk about approaches or reasons why. The real important thing here is there are three implementations that work. This enables the DNSEXT working group to advance RFC1886bis to Draft Standard. The fact that one implementation forces services (mail, NS, ..) to use IPv4 transport when IPv6 transport is available, is not critical as the information is available via explicit AAAA query.
